His watch? When did he become president of the planet? You're stepping out of the world of reality right now and its kinda frightening that you're taking a fox news approach to reporting news.

Anyway, what the hell happened? Did they shell these buildings?

Saw it in JBO wanted to turn it off but couldn't. It didn't get to me until they started pulling those kids from the rubble. I couldn't hold back the tears but the most fukked up part about it was how used to it they all seemed. I can't begin to imagine what it's like to see shyt like that on the daily.

No one should!

I argued for days and weeks against the so-called Arab spring, and the fall of Gaddafi. I argued that we shouldn't fan any these flames of war.

Who were the ones who advocated this movement? Of course, it was the liberal HNICs of this forum.

And the boys in your avatar would've brought even more warfare to the world.

Sectarian violence in the wake of decades-long dictatorships being overthrown, I mean who would've thunk it. :beli:


Lol@an Ayn Rand disciple being pro-dictator.

the arab spring script is real simple and easy to follow

- secular dictatorship is over thrown
- islamist parties rise to power as they are the only mechanism for mobilization, and have established networks in place
- islamicization of society begins
- islamists over play their hand, lack the political maturity and experience to democratize
- democratic backlash, govt crackdown, democratic society overwhelms

this is all contingent on the existence of a strong civil society and no foreign interference

iran is on step 5...the backlash is fierce, but they will over come
egypt is on step 2

Is it similar to saying "oh my god"? Imagine pulling a dead/ severely injured family member or friend out of rubble. :damn:

Well, when you say "OMG", you are kinda imploring God outta desperation/surprise, aren't you ?
I thought "Allahu Akbar" meant "God is great"... It's an affirmation, that's why I don't understand :unsure:
